Moose calf plays hide and seek

June 5, 2017 by Tony Leave a Comment

Here is a very cute one for Moose Monday. I headed to the high country on Saturday with my main goal being to capture pictures of the new Moose calves that I knew were up there. That unfortunately did not turn out quite as planned as other than this little one, they stayed well hidden from me.

Even this guy (or gal) did not really want to cooperate for pictures, opting to keep its distance and stay in the shadows. As a result, the images aren’t that great but it was a lot of fun to see it.

Mostly likely it is only a couple of weeks old and quite small compared to what it will be when fully grown. It will spend the next year or so hanging out with mom after which it will be chased off as the cow prepares to mate again.
